There are 6 Pilates principles that bring together the mind-body-spirit approach of Pilates. These principles were not initially created by Joseph Pilates himself but the concepts were later created by instructors based off Joseph’s work. The principle of Flow is generally the 6th and last principle that brings it all together. Pilates is meant to be done in a flowing manner, representing fluidity, grace and ease around every exercise and every movement. The energy of one exercise connects all body parts together and therefor flows evenly throughout the body.

Pilates equipment that utilities spring tension can often disrupt the flow if one is not maintaining control and concentration. The springs should remain quiet, fluid and smooth, much like that of a brand-new car. Similarly, to the work that was originally developed on the Mat.
However, the goal is not to look like a dancer, but to move the body in an optimal way biomechanically. With flow, the connection we feel from our breath through our body allows for seamless movements from one exercise to the next.
